Autonomous fail-over to hot-spare processor using SMI
ActiveUS20050172164A1None of can remain in operationEliminate the problemRedundant hardware error correctionPower modeFailover
A method and system for dynamically replacing a failing processor in a server system configured with IA-32 architecture without requiring hardware changes to the IA-32 architecture or administrative effort. At least one processor of the multiprocessor system (MP) is initially provided as a reserve (or hot-spare) processor that remains in an idle, off, or low-power mode. While in that mode, the OS is prevented from initially utilizing the hot-spare processor. When a processor failure is detected, SMI code running on a good processor instructs the OS to hold off allocating processes to the failing processor. Contemporaneously, the SMI (and OS) activates and completes an initialization of the hot-spare processor to prepare it to begin receiving the held-off processes. Control is then returned to the OS, which updates the “active” processor list and allocates the threads that were running on the failing processor to the hot-spare processor.

InactiveUS20080007885A1Improve reliabilityNone of can remain in operationElectroluminescent light sourcesEmergency protective arrangements for automatic disconnectionAntifuseHolding current
System and method for increasing the reliability of LED illumination systems used in projection display systems. A preferred embodiment comprises a light source with one or more serially connected sequences of two or more light elements coupled to a power source. Each light element includes a light emitting diode and an antifuse coupled in parallel to the light emitting diode, wherein the antifuse short circuits if a current flowing through the antifuse exceeds a specified magnitude. The current exceeds the specified magnitude only if an open circuit type failure occurs in the light emitting diode and the short circuit of the antifuse creates a low-resistance current path, thereby preserving current flow through the serially connected sequence and keeping the remaining light elements illuminated.

An adjustable pulley for use in a continuously variable transmission has two coaxial flanges at least one of which is a composite flange having an annular main section with a conical surface adjacent a reinforcing liner of wear resistant material. The liner is secured to the main section of the composite flange by a one-piece or composite disc-shaped insert one side of which has several portions affixed (such as bonded and / or riveted) to the adjacent side of the liner, and the other side of which has several portions affixed to the conical surface and / or another part of the main section. Those portions of the one side of the insert which are affixed to the liner are out of register with those portions of the other side of the insert which are affixed to the main section to thus enable the liner to move relative to the conical surface in one or more directions other than circumferentially of the main section.

The present invention relates to a method of determining a lubrication parameter indicative of a lubrication condition of an oil-lubricated rolling element bearing. The method comprises measuring high-frequency structure-borne acoustic emissions generated by asperity contact between rolling contact surfaces of the bearing, to provide a measured signal. The emitted acoustic energy is then extracted from the measured signal and the lubrication parameter is determined from the acoustic energy. The determination is made on the basis of a power-law relation between acoustic energy and the lubrication parameter.

A method to optimize resources needed to continue flight if at least one main engine is lost, by relieving a propulsion system that has remained operative of all or some of non-propulsive energy demands, by additional generation of non-propulsive power, operating continuously. The method uses a GPP unit that operates constantly in flight while taking up some of nominal total non-propulsive power of the aircraft, to supply increased non-propulsive power almost instantaneously, based on at least three respective emergency regimes at a time of engine failure. A control and monitoring function of the GPP calculates elapsed time for each emergency regime, and informs a data processing unit thereof, while emitting an alarm if operating periods allocated to each emergency regime are exceeded, and the emergency function adjusts non-propulsive power demands made by the aircraft between main engines and the unit GPP either automatically or on orders of a pilot.

An arrangement and method for assessing and diagnosing the operating state of a device under test in the presence of a disturbing ambient noise and for detecting, localizing and classifying defects of the device which affect its operational reliability and quality. At least two sensors monitor signals at arbitrary locations which are affected by signals emitted by defects and by ambient noise sources. A source analyzer receives the monitored signals, identifies the number and location of the sources, separates defect and noise sources, and analyzes the deterministic and stochastic signal components emitted by each source. Defect and noise vectors at the outputs of the source analyzer are supplied to a defect classificator which detects invalid parts of the measurements corrupted by ambient noise, accumulates the valid parts, assesses the quality of the system under test and identifies the physical causes and location of the defects.
